Inside Higher Ed

Persona Non Grata

For Duke University students interested in learning about hedge funds and the economic forces that drive them, Economics 381S -- Inside Hedge Funds, taught by Linsey Lebowitz Hughes, a lecturing fellow of economics -- is probably a good place to start. There’s just one small catch, found six bullet points down on the front page of the course syllabus. “Anyone who is on the staff of The Chronicle is not permitted to take this class.”
